Honestly, I get what Patrick is saying, but I feel it goes both ways. If the point was for folks to not think ALL webmasters are "some group of arrogant people", which I agree they aren't (at least I hope they aren't), I wonder if all/most webmasters think people sending them emails are self-entitled because they like a model/have purchased content. Which I think is what the OP was getting at. BECAUSE of webmasters' bad experience with the self-entitled lot, they may, perhaps inadvertently, take it out on the ones who AREN'T like that.
Its like what I'm hearing is the webmasters saying "I get your point, BUT--" and then point out their bad experiences...and then the buyer says "I get your point, BUT--" and then point out THEIR bad experiences. Might simply be a lack of empathy on both sides.

Yeah, probably what happens most of the time to be honest. My point, which I probably went on tangent, was that sometimes it takes some time to get to people's emails when we go through stuff like what I listed. I can only imagine what a girl who runs a site or answers the emails goes though. My worst emails are generally the ones that think I'm the girls in the pictures. Those get quite, umm... pushy at times. LOL
